| Kurzbeschreibung | The course introduces students to the product development process. In a team, you will explore the early phases of conceptual development and product design, from ideation and concept generation through to hands-on prototyping. This is an opportunity to gain product development experience and improve your skills in prototyping and presenting your product ideas. The project topic changes each year. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | The course introduces you to the product development process and methods in engineering design for: product planning, user-centered design, creating product specifications, ideation including concept generation and selection methods, material selection methods and prototyping. Further topics include design for manufacture and design for additive manufacture. You will actively apply the process and methods learned throughout the semester in a team on a product development project including prototyping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | Weekly topics accompanying the product development project include: 1 Introduction to Product Development and Engineering Design 2 Product Planning and Social-Economic-Technology (SET) Factors 3 User-Centered Design and Product Specifications 4 Concept Generation and Selection Methods 5 System Design and Embodiment Design 6 Prototyping and Prototype Planning 7 Material Selection in Engineering Design 8 Design for Manufacture and Design for Additive Manufacture | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Kurzbeschreibung | In this lecture series, students will learn from researchers around the globe about technological interventions designed to improve human well-being for complex, low-resource settings. Students will get familiar with frameworks from social sciences and engineering, helping them to understand and evaluate the discussed technologies and to put them into a broader context. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | • Students will get familiar with frameworks from social sciences and engineering needed for innovation in a complex, low-resource setting. • Students will learn about concrete examples of technological interventions designed to improve sustainable development and critically reflect on them. • Students get a broad understanding of some of the most important issues and discussions related to global sustainable development. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | In the introductory class, students will learn about challenges related to global sustainable developments and how they have developed over time. Students will then get exposed to frameworks from social sciences and engineering disciplines, which will help them analyze technologies designed for low-resource settings. In the remaining sessions thought leaders from the field of development engineering will present a wide range of innovations from sectors such as health, water and sanitation, education and governance that will then get discussed with students. Since many of this thought leaders will come from around the globe at least 50% of sessions will be online. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Kurzbeschreibung | The course is for doctoral students who are developing a technology/concept to advance the Sustainable Development Goals and are interested in testing/piloting it in a real-world setting. Building on a proposal that participants develop in advance, the course covers the practical and theoretical considerations involved when taking a technology/concept into a real-world context. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | Students understand the concepts of co-evolution of technology and policy and can evaluate the external validity of a case study. They understand how to determine user needs and design their technology/concept to meet them. They understand how to test the social impact of a technology/concept. They can identify potential ethical issues and develop a mitigation strategy. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | This course is for doctoral students from all ETH departments who are developing a technology or concept to advance the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of their PhD and are interested in testing/piloting it in a real-world setting. Building on a short proposal that participants will develop before the course, the 4-day program will address the practical and theoretical considerations involved when taking the technology/concept out of the lab into a real world context. The skills developed will allow participants to iteratively develop their proposal such that it could be competitive if submitted to a funding call. Special attention will be paid to the common pitfalls of technology testing in complex environments, user-centered design, quantitative evaluation, as well as the fundamentals of project management in an international multi-partner project, paying particular attention to the KFPE principles. Students will come with a short project proposal that is further developed over the course of the four days and learn the necessary background, theory, and methods to implement and evaluate their technology/concept. Content will be delivered through lectures, workshop sessions and presentations . The success of the course will depend on the student's willingness to apply the material to their own proposal, integrating the feedback of peers and lecturers along the way. Each morning will consist of a lecture and practical session. The afternoons will include time for workshopping the proposals, as well as a feedback session and group discussion. Topics covered include: Innovation/Research Theory: How to think about technological impact ex ante and how to select case studies Needs-Driven Technologies: How to define the problem/need for which a solution is to be designed/tested Impact Measurement: How to design a research project that can analyze the social impact of a technological or social innovation Partnership Administration and Ethics: How to set up and maintain equitable partnerships We welcome students from all departments, particularly from engineering, computer and natural sciences. Ideally, PhD students are already advanced enough to already have a (first) proposal but not too advanced so that this course only creates afterthoughts. As such, we recommend that students take the course in the first or second year of their doctoral studies. Importantly, this course is not meant as a comprehensive introduction to the research design skills that a doctoral student should have; rather this is a short overview that will provide insights into the specific methodologies used to translate lab-based research into more complex environments. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Please note: Students can only participate in the course if they send a short proposal with the following information about the technology/concept they are developing (max. 2 pages!) via email to alhees@ethz.ch no later than February 20, 2023. Motivation (which challenge/need will be addressed? Which SDGs are addressed?) Background (current state of the art) Describe concept/technology and its novelty Case study location, targeted context, targeted population Proposed methodology to test/pilot the technology/concept | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
